I've got a media server!
I have an Emby server that I and some friends like to use.
I use a qBittorrent behind a VPN. You just have to figure out how to use Gluetun, and then you run the media server behind it's network. Pretty neat.
I used to have Jellyfin but emby has been treating me right.
Jellyfin was the first thing I tried installing on my server, but I knew the bare minimum about Linux so that took a while.
I knew nothing of permissions/groups/users so that made things a little difficult. I did end up getting it going but looking back, the way it was set up was very janky.
